Correct ofcourse! The beaches in the photo are where the Marines landed on September 15th 1944. 60 landing craft were knocked out within hours of the main assault. The Japanese garrison was 13000, about 300 survived. The battle ended November 25th.
In August of 2004, Zappi, Homba, Bambam887, RedScorpion and MOOXE all pitched
in to create this Close Combat site. I would to thank all the people who have visited
and found this site to thier liking. I hope you had time to check out some
of the great Close Combat mods and our forums. I'd also like to thank
all the members of our volunteer staff that have helped over
the years, and all our users that contributed to this site!
